5 reasons to pan the iPod
11/11/2003 03:40 AMA CNET article lists the five top reasons to avoid the iPod. Though
the article isn't completely anti-iPod, it does follow closely on the
heels of a CNET poll which was decidedly biased against Apple's
digital music device. According the article, battery life, price, a
lack of recording, the inability of the iPod to play WMA files and the
fact that it is hard-drive based are the 5 reasons to NOT buy one. The
article concludes with a list of competitors from Dell, Creative, Rio

02/16/2004 05:19 PMCalling the iPod Mini a near-perfect MP3 player, Eliot Van Buskirk
writes, “The iPod brand has become synonymous with excellent portable
audio players, and the 4GB Apple iPod Mini carries on the tradition
with its fashionable, intelligent design. Its hard drive holds about
74 hours’ worth of music and shares the same impressive graphical
interface and sound specs as its larger sibling, the white iPod.
Meanwhile, the earlier device’s strongest design point — the
scrollwheel — has been improved to help you navigate menus and music
with even greater one-handed ease.” [Feb 16]

More Reasons Not To Upgrade
More Reasons Not To Upgrade
08/12/2004 10:26 PMOne common wisdom in the Macintosh land is to never install updates
from Apple immediately. Wait a while, and let all the other beta
testers upgrade and report their successs or failture before you do
so. Who knows, maybe Apple will even pull the update so that they can
work on it somemore before
you update?
But now, there is
another reason why you shouldn't update so quickly: find out if the
latest and greatest Apple patch will disable your beloved hack --
whether it is to play Windows Media files through your AirPort
Express, or copy your RealNetwork files to your iPod.
Sometimes,
the computer industry can make one sad.

In the near term, many business users will be better

they're released. If they aren't dependent on Internet Explorer
technology, however, some end users could use Firefox for their daily
Web surfing while reserving Internet Explorer use for sites that

Just A Few Reasons Why You Still Need To
Work
04/07/2005 10:29 PMIt seems that every few years, some "thinker" starts to extrapolate
out on the trend of automation and comes to the conclusion that we're
all going to lose our jobs. Of course, some think this is a good
thing. If there's enough wealth to go around, then why not just chill
out and sip beverages on the beach or something? Obviously, it's
something of a pipe dream, but that doesn't stop the discussion from
happening. A few years ago it was Marshall Brain and his worries
about
robot
s stealing your jobs. Last month, a consultant ripped off the
same idea and renamed it
"off-
peopling" to make it sound new. Of course, they're all just
different riffs off the same idea that keeps coming up. A decade ago,
for example, it was Jeremy Rifkin telling us all that we were coming
upon
<
i>The End of Work. Of course, we're all still working, and
some are finally hitting back and giving a number of
detai
led reasons why human jobs aren't going away even as we automate
their jobs away. Basically, all of this automation simply opens up
new opportunities for different types of jobs -- often in the
surrounding ecosystem related to the automation. All of those
machines need to be built and maintained, after all. At the same
time, increased automation opens up new opportunities for support and
services -- and, that's where plenty of jobs have been heading
recently.

Apricorn EZ Bus Mini Hard Drive Reviewed
08/23/2004 06:30 AM
The good news about the Apricorn EZ Bus Mini 20GB,
a USB bus-powered hard drive design for on-the-go backups, is that it
works very well (if a little slowly), and even has a pretty nice suite
of software if you're using Windows (OSX can see the drive fine, but
there's no software). The bad news is that for about the same $200 or
so price of the Apricorn EZ Bus, you could get a regular USB 2.0 or
FireWire unit that uses standard 3.5-inch hard drives with at least
five or six times the capacity. Of course, it would be nearly as
portable as the iPod-sized Apricorns, and it would probably require
its own mains power, but it would be bigger.
That being said, if you're on the road, and looking for a cheap way
to store some of your data, if not all of it, it looks like a
pretty decent deal. Everything USB has a little price checker at the
bottom of their review, and it looks like the 20GB model can be found
for as low as $165; cheap enough that the "why not just buy an iPod?"
argument is nullified, thankfully.

the odd mention of a wireless iPod, with a twist. While people have
been talking about an iPod with built-in AirPort for a while now (to
enable direct-to-AirPort Express streaming, for one thing), this is
the first I've heard anyone mention an iPod with built-in WiMax
(Intel's unreleased, long-range wireless networking service), let
alone one without a hard-drive.
I think it's best to chalk it up as rumor for now, but if anyone
has an inside line on something along those lines, I would be pleased

in&highlight=">second part</a> of our look at some
of the portable gear Seagate are offering currently, we've taken a
look at the company's smaller option for users :
a 5 GB, pocket
hard drive.
<ul>"USB: it's everywhere. Like a plague amongst
motherboard designers, the USB socket has become ubiquitous with the
modern day computer. Asides from devices like printers and mice, USB
devices range from the quirky to the rather useful. Arguably one of
the most useful groups of devices on the market today is the portable
USB drive.
High speed, reliable and small, they've virtually killed the floppy
disk drive giving computer users a better way to store and transfer
their files. In a world of bulging PowerPoint presentations and
growing media libraries, the question of storage on the go is one that
has hit most of us. Perhaps, we've found an
answer."</ul>
After the initial amazement that they could pack in 5 GB's worth of
hard drive into such a small space, we looked deeper into an
exceptionally well designed portable device. For the full review,

; target="_Blank">drives</a>, today we'll have a
look at a Desktop counterpart by Maxtor. The massive <b>250GB
DiamondMax 10</b>. As large hard drives are becoming of an
increased importance, we will also cover a small guide so you know
what to look for when buying a new hard drive.
<ul>After plugging everything in, the drive was visible to my
onboard Promise RAID/SATA Interface controller’s BIOS. In
here, you can setup the “bootability” of drives
and decide whether you want your hard drives to work in a RAID
environment or simply to work alone; I decided to skip the RAID
options and work alone. Maxtor offer a setup of tools to help you
format the drive; MaxBlast, a piece of hard drive management software
for Windows by Maxtor, for Maxtor drives.
The first thing you may notice, or not, is the noise level of the hard
drive while in operation – it is, to say the least, very
quiet. I found noise only noticeable whilst doing sustained file
transfers between itself and my DiamondMax 9. I felt the drive was
probably about twice as quiet as the DiamondMax 9; serious credit to
Maxtor’s “Quiet Drive” technology, the
Fluid Dynamic Bearings, and the fact that the spindle runs at 7,200
RPM (Western Digital has a line of hard drives running at a noisy 10K
RPM).</ul>
Will this massive drive keep up to par with the other drives
available? Namely the 10K RPM Western Digital Raptor drives? On to the
review...

03/14/2005 06:26 PMHarddrives : a critical part of any personal computer. They store our

Seagate is one of an increasingly small number of harddrive vendors to
stick through tough times and keep on producing good gear. Founded in
1979, the company stayed at the forefront of the industry making the

first fiber channel interface disk drive.
<strong>Today, we're looking at a portable harddrive from
Seagate</strong>. It's basically a small (2.5") harddrive
packed inside a strong shell with a high speed, USB 2 adaptor on rear;
it's also got a bright blue LED light for good measure. Seagate offer
two version of the drive; a 40gig version and a 100gig version - we
looked at the 100gig version. Read on the review!
